Portland Trail Blazers forward Larry Nance Jr. (knee) will not play in Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Nance Jr. will not be available against his former team after Cleveland's forward experienced recent right knee inflammation. Expect Robert Covington to log more minutes in a difficult matchup against a Cleveland unit ranked third in defensive rating.
Covington's Friday projection includes 8.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 1.7 assists.
